Red Hot + Blue: A Tribute to Cole Porter

Red Hot + Blue: A Tribute to Cole Porter (1991) more music like this

by Various Artists

A fitfully entertaining collection of contemporary pop stars interpreting classic Cole Porter songs, Red Hot + Blue highlights include U2, Sinead O'Connor, Kirsty MacColl & the Pogues, Neneh Cherry, and David Byrne, but the best part of the disc is the wonderfully campy duet between Deborah Harry and Iggy Pop on "Well Did You Evah." All Music ...

On the Moon

On the Moon (2004) more music like this

by Peter Cincotti

Vocalist/pianist Peter Cincotti burst onto the jazz scene in 2003 as an 18-year-old wunderkind much in the same way that Harry Connick, Jr. positioned himself as an updated crooner with a debut album of enjoyable if predictable standards from various decades. Interestingly, Cincotti's follow-up, On the Moon, finds him exploring funk and soft rock ...

by Ella Fitzgerald

A striking two-CD set featuring arguably history's finest jazz singer singing some of the best-written American pop standards on one of jazz's most prolific labels.

Dream Dancing: Songs of Cole Porter

Dream Dancing: Songs of Cole Porter (2001) more music like this

by Beegie Adair

This straight-ahead Cole Porter tribute was one of the first three releases from Hillsboro, a Nashville-based label that got off the ground in early 2001. (The other two were Antoine Silverman's Blue Moods and Jack Jezzro's Jazz Elegance.) Pianist Beegie Adair certainly knows her way around these songs, and she's aided expertly by bassist Roger ...

I Love Paris

I Love Paris (1954) more music like this

by Michel Legrand

Michel Legrand was only 22 when he created this best-selling theme album, a selection of Paris-centered standards from both sides of the Atlantic, scored for his own slightly jazzy orchestral ensemble. It's probably one of the few easy listening records (or any album until much later) where the work was meant to be listened to as a whole: Legrand ...

It's De Lovely: The Authentic Cole Porter Collection

It's De Lovely: The Authentic Cole Porter Collection (2004) more music like this

by Cole Porter

Whenever great American song in general, or a classic songwriter specifically, goes through another phase of popularity, record labels invariably cast around to assemble yet another round of songbook compilations with artists from their catalog interpreting the standards. In 2004, on the occasion of the Cole Porter biopic De-Lovely (starring Kevin ...

Skylark (1956) more music like this

by Annie Ross

This little-known set (reissued on CD) from 1956 features singer Annie Ross four years after she originally recorded "Twisted" but a year before the formation of Lambert, Hendricks & Ross. Based in London at the time, Ross avoids scatting and vocalese in favor of conventional swinging and jazz-oriented interpretations of standards. Backed ...

Don't Go to Strangers (1960) more music like this

by Etta Jones

Don't Go to Strangers was Etta Jones' first album for the independent jazz label Prestige when it was released in 1960 (having been recorded in a single session on June 21 of that year), and although Jones had been releasing records since 1944, including a dozen sides for RCA in 1946 and an album for King Records in 1957, she was treated as an ...

The Romantic Moods of Jackie Gleason (1996) more music like this

by Jackie Gleason

This is a fine compilation of Jackie Gleason's output for Columbia. Gleason's objective was to make "musical wallpaper" that should never be intrusive, but rather conducive. He was not musically literate, but never had a problem articulating what he wanted to hear from his orchestra. The music here is quiet, melancholy, and often somber, played at ...

Cow Fingers & Mosquito Pie (1991) more music like this

by Screamin' Jay Hawkins

Cow Fingers and Mosquito Pie is a magically weird 19-song collection of the bizarre shouter's mid-'50s OKeh/Epic output, when he was at the height of his strange and terrifying vocal powers. In addition to the prerequisite "I Put a Spell on You," and the surreal rockers "Yellow Coat," "Hong Kong," "Alligator Wine," and "Little Demon"; there's the ...

Frank Sinatra Sings the Select Cole Porter (1991) more music like this

by Frank Sinatra

Nothing shows the fallacy of the furor over Frank Sinatra's Duets release than this CD anthology featuring him doing several Cole Porter numbers originally recorded in the 1950s and '60s. The opening selection, a 1950s rendition of "I've Got You Under My Skin," exposes the farcical 1993 slapstick routine between Sinatra and U2's Bono. This is a ...

Jerusalem (1986) more music like this

Despite heated protests from his parents, Alpha Blondy abandoned his studies in education to establish himself as a singer, a move influenced by his discovery of the Rastafarian faith and the music of international reggae star Bob Marley. A longtime dream was fulfilled in 1986 when, five years after Marley's death, the singer's backing band, the ...
